Subject: [netatalk-admins] HELP: nbprgstr problems with Linux

I have a rather strange situation. For almost a year I've been running
netatalk on a Linux box,
and it works pretty much flawlessly. To protect the innocent, let's call
it machine A.
We recently purchased another machine running Linux (machine B). I
basically just copied
over all of the already working stuff to machine B.
Now the symptoms:
1) machine B doesn't appear in the chooser, nor if you use
AppleTalk polling
programs such Trawl and LanSatellite
2) machine A appears fine in all of the above
3) AFP over TCP/IP works fine over both machines A and B.
4) nbplkup returns nothing when run on machine B
5) nbplkup on machine A doesn't report itself (feature/bug?) but
does report machine B!
6) when nbprgstr is run on machine B, it responds with a connection
timed out message
I tried -seed in atalkd.conf to no avail.
Machine B has different Ethernet hardware than machine A.
Machine B kernel is 2.0.30; machine A is 2.0.27
The netatalk version is netatalk-1.4b2+asun2.0a14
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
